You can be sure that I never will post the result of this. And as I noticed that most ppl here can't help anyway it's better I just leave you alone. Go play with Tiger as this is all you can do. I'm away and never will visit this board again as I just realised that you all here just can't...

Hmm, I guess this are two completely different things? And stefania never mentioned anything about this Trojan (or better the false positive). I still bet this is just a 'problem' with the provider who redirect irc traffic with 'faked' dns entrys to his own server to remove a (windows)...

Sorry, due to a dns server failure I just double posted the last. Please delete this post.

Wow, that's really a helpfull answer. And exactly this type of answer is the reason why I left the last board. I'm not a stupid gamer and of cause everything in the universe is there for a reason. Sorry but if I ask a question I would like to have a answer and not a stupid post. Either tell...

You can also try sysctl ( sysctl -a ) for some hardware things like cputype and tools like df for diskspace. That's a lot faster than Apples system_profiler. System version can easily be read with sw_vers Some examples might be: sysctl hw.cputype sysctl hw.cpusubtype sysctl...

Have a look at this: http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,12922412 I've just read a bit there bit if I understand it correct this is a 'problem' with cox.net in order to protect their customers. They redirect their customers to their own irc server and use this to remove a virus. So...

Most important is to encrypt the traffic (minimum WEP 128 Bit), enter fixed MAC addresses for allowed units and disable/hide the SSID. There is a lot more that can be done but that's just to complicated and in 99.9% just not necessary for a private person. Depends on your data and if there...

Can somebody explain me why /etc, /var and /tmp are just symbolic links for /private/...? Is there any good reason for this? I'm just thinking about moving the folders out of /private and replace the symlinks with the 'real' folder. Has anybody already tested this? Maybe some applications use...

I'm not 100% sure but if you google for diskarbitrationd all those pages refer to OS X/Darwin.

I just would like to share my latest experiment with you because I haven't found any page in the internet explaining how to do this. Most pages even tell that it's impossible or recommend to use symlinks as a replacement. But first a warning: I can't provide longtime results or guarantee that...

Just for the case you don't wanne disable syslog you can replace the Defaults:ALL !syslog with Defaults:ALL syslog=authpriv And in my opinion that would be a thing Apple should have change long ago. And the statement that an admin user should know this is imho just stupid. Than Apple should...

Edit: Oops, sorry. Haven't read the text correct. You aren't searching traffic but speed. So you should try MRTG and not DarkStat: http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/mrtg/ An example how the result will look like: http://www.stat.ee.ethz.ch/mrtg/ -- You can try DarkStat 2.6...

Why doesn't anybody read the security sites bevor writting such things. This is simply not true. I DON'T NEED ANY PASSWORT FROM THE USER TO GET ROOT. Actually you just have to start the trojan (or whatever). And it's VERY easy to do this. I bet I can fool you in 2 seconds to doubleclick my...

That's really a strange thing. We just can hope that this is a rare virus that disappear as fast as it arrived. And hopefully this doesn't infect other lifeforms as well. I just got the ProMed Request For Information about this. But the text is more or less the same as on BBC as they used it...

The problem here is that thu user don't need to give any password. It gains root just by using mRouter. The script just need to be started. And 9 out of 10 test persons (that got a dummy executable from me) opened the app (they believed it's a folder as yeu just need to change the icon). Of...

No, that's a big difference as libc is open source and I can replace it, change the source code or whatever I want. I can't just disable or edit some webkit functions. And as there are some security issues with the webkit all apps that uses it are vulnerable and I can't change this without...

No Tiger here. And probably never any Apple software again. I haven't invested the last month in turning my (original) 10.3.6 system in a good, fast and very stable system just to destroy all this work for a gamer OS like Tiger. About 8 years ago Apple was the best choice I could find and I...

Depends on what you call anonymous. First if you just mean http (what most people do) than TOR is the best choice. Many other 'so called anonymizer' just don't do what you believe they should. Just routing you around the world using 10 open proxys just make it worse. Ok, the destination page...

Maybe this is what you search? http://www.securemac.com/macosxsshhelper.php Edit: Sorry this is the wrong app. Thought it could also manage the host entrys :(

Depends on the lib. Most of them are working fine without any changes needed. For example libnet, glib, libpng, gettext... just work out of the box. But if you try to get things like gtk+ running it's really hard (and sometimes impossible). So if you're just interested in 'simple' libs (used...
